Rws Hyperdome Pellets, 5.5 Gr .177, - 11 Gr .22 Anyone Tried Them ?

[mark williams 7,558]

Just out of interest,any of you lads tried these ultra light pellets for vermin control please ?

 

RWS even do the Hypermax pellet at 5.2 gr .177 and 9.9 gr .22 but pointed .

The Hyperdome are "domed"

That would be a no then. I'm still spanking my monkey over falcon accuracy plus mate. Like the rest of us.

Aye up Rez,

 

 

Put your monkey down and use them, then, they sure surprised me in the hunting field. Hence the question over the domed 11 grain RWS.

I remember a review by Si Pitterway with the HW 100 and his summary was that RWS fields were "outstanding" with the 100.

So has anyone used these light, RWS pellets ?

Alright Mark.

 

Not sure Id got down to 5.5grn in my own 100. I do see your referencing the 22 more so in your reply though. Kinda stuck in my ways with AA Fields.

Hi Lads,

 

I`ve put the thought of them to bed now after getting my answers off you tube and the Air Gun Gear show.

 

.177 are dreadful .

 

.22 were not tested.

 

Basically they are tin pellets and very hard, fast and light,- not good for the barrel i think.

The groups were all over the place, kinetic energy was crap, so no good for hunting at all .

 

 

( For me) Forget tin pellets ( in .177 anyway )

While we're talking pellets and you boys use and test .177,any one used the real heavy ones,h&n piledrivers,21 grain in .177?? There's another heavy one but can't remember what's its called...

 

 

Not a wind up or another debate and I personally don't see the point in sub 12 but am interested...

The heaviest I've tried in .177 was H&N Sniper Magnum at 15gr. I found them accurate and, they had a big punch but, they really dropped off after 30yrds.

They're not bad out to a max of 25yrds.

not used any light rws but my 100 is spot on with rws super domes 14.5gr there spot on too about 40y ..... i think the quality of rws pellets is really good,just used a tin and didn't throw one away as opposed to the jbs junk thats being sold! cheap and cheerful

was the testing you watched done with a springer?!

cos my spinger groups with them look like a shotgun grouping

Leave well alone i say Mark , you are using some of the best pellets already in your HW 100's
